Full-Day Kindergarten Pilot Program
The Department of Education is introducing full-day kindergarten across Nunavut beginning with a pilot in five schools during the 2023-2024 school year. The schools participating are:
- Nanook School, Apex
- Qaqqalik School, Kimmirut
- Victor Sammurtok School, Chesterfield Inlet
- Inuglak School, Whale Cove
- Jimmy Hikok Ilihakvik, Kugluktuk
The 2023-2024 Full-Day Kindergarten Pilot is the first step to help guide a phased system-wide rollout.
Lessons learned from the pilot will be used to inform the department’s long-term plan and ensure the sustainable implementation of full-day kindergarten across all Nunavut schools.
